wispfoxIt's... odd to be told, after one has spent 10-15 minutes whining about reasons to be frustrated with things (nothing new, y'all), that one doesn't get frustrated.
Apparently, the fact that I said things like that I can cope, and then gave reasons why, was the reason for that statement.
But, well... if I _can't_ cope, I don't stay in situations that frustrate me. It's not healthy for me to stay, in that case.
So I guess it was not that I don't get frustrated, but that I don't stay with sources of frustration which are not worth the frustration.
I'm somewhat baffled by the idea of staying around sources of frustration, unless one's available opportunities truly don't allow any other behavior. But then, there's an awful lot of people who seem to think they just have no opportunities, where the truth is simply that they refuse to take them. (note that I am _not_ ignoring the fact that some people really _don't_ have other options, because they don't have the time/energy/money/etc in their life) So perhaps it's just that my idea of what is and is not an option, and what is and is not something I can cope with, is an unusual one. Not sure.
But fascinated!
